This thread was sparked from my rant on The Last of Us 2, due to the issue I'm having with aiming on a controller. I'll just move that post to here, since I think it's more applicable. And I'm sure I'm not the only one with this issue. It just astounds me that we're into the fucking 5th generation of the Playstation and they still haven't dealt with this issue.
Has anyone managed to solve this issue in a decent way? As I said above, I've tried a particular k&m to controller adapter, but I've had flawed results. Laggy, and just not very nice.

Slugish as fuck when you want the cursor to move, and then you can't stop due to inertia. Worst peripheral ever. Whoever came up with it should have his professional license removed.
Why the fuck won't console developers also adopt keyboard and mouse as an option. The PS4 supports it, but it's also up to individual devs to do so. But why doesn't Sony force its first-party developers to do it, if they officially support k&m.
I know I might be in a fit of rage right now, but I'm seriously considering just spoiling the whole plot for myself, and avoiding all the frustration which comes with aiming on these fucking things.
That's it. That's my rant.
EDIT: And before anyone recommends those adapters that adapt k&m input to controller, they don't seem to work very good. At least the one I got is all over the place with consistency. And it also doesn't help that all in-game prompts are using the controller buttons.
Sony and the other devs should absolutely be ashamed of themselves. It would take absolute minimal effort to make the game work perfectly on k&m. Multi hundred million dollar game budgets, and they don't make it work on a k&m. Fuck that. But they like to show off how accessible their game is. And how sightless people can play it. But they can't do support for a fucking mouse? This just proves that all that inclusiveness that they constantly tout in marketing is just bullshit.
